Adam Lanza: Newtown Gunman’s Search Warrants Released

Affidavits, warrants and items taken from Adam’s car and the home he shared with his mother Nancy were released on March 28 in a series of court documents, illustrating a haunting image of the killer who collected an arsenal of weapons leading up to the Dec. 14 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School.

On top of the several guns inside the home, police recovered three samurai swords, a 12-gauge shotgun, two magazines containing 70 rounds of ammunition, and a long pole with a blade on one side and a spear on the other.

Adam & Nancy Lanza’s Bodies Found: Police Details

When police arrived at the scene of the crime on Dec. 14, they found Adam’s body “dressed in military style clothing, wearing a bullet proof vest lying deceased on the floor in the middle classroom. The deceased male was in possession of several handguns as well as a military style assault weapon.”

When they arrived at Adam’s home, they found Nancy Lanza, Adam’s mother, “lying in supine position on a bed in the 2nd floor master bedroom” with an apparent gunshot wound to the head. Investigators located “a rifle on the floor near the bed.”

Family members of the Newtown shooting victims were briefed by Connecticut State Police on March 27, regarding what was recovered in Adam’s car and home. However, Superior Court Judge John Blawie ordered certain parts of the documents to be redacted after prosecutors requested that the identity of a key witness not be released for another 90 days.

The final police report on the massacre is expected to be released in June.

What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Are you shocked by these findings?

Somebody should have known that the Lanza family was WEIRD!!! Nancy Lanza was a WEIRD WOMAN who raised a WEIRD CHILD ALL BY HERSELF BECAUSE HER HUSBAND WAS A WEIRD MAN WHO WOULD RATHER PAY EXHORBITANT MONEY TO AN EX-WIFE!!! The idea that she was living alone in a huge home with a crazy son should have kept the neighbors on alert! Didn’t anybody ever go to her home?? What’s wrong with people????

@ morekare:
I wholeheartedly agree.
I mean, when I had seen the pic of the cop car leaving a huge home, on alot of acreage, it made me wonder what went wrong.
That was a beautiful home,and with the acreage, would have been perfect for horses.
Yes, you are right: Nancy knew there was something wrong in that family. I mean, why didn’t she look over her home, when Adam was sleeping and find these guns ?!? The one thing she DIDN’T talk about and she SHOULD have, was her off-in-the-head son.
THIS is why I feel that crazy people should be kept in insane asylums. Thank you Ron Reagan, for closing them down and allowing the crazies to intermings and kill the innocent SANE people…
Somethign should have been done to him,and he should have been forcibly taken into a home for crazy people. There IS a such thing as ” probable cause.” The police and his mom should have excersized that right . 20 kids would still be alive and what? 3 adults, would still be alive too.

This article and others reporting the same will pull out all the “crazies” that think everyone not considered “normal” be locked up. Yet, I may think the poster , who stated “insane asylums” in my opinion should be locked in one. Who decides that. Was he ever a danger to himself or others?

The school would call the mother when he had meltdowns, yet the schools should have placed him in a behavior program school YEARS prior. Instead schools are “housing” these kids and making families fight for even minimal services. We need to provide services and treatments while they are CHILDREN. What’s the paper trail of IEP meetings? What was discussed? What services were given. Most inadequate I expect.
